If that’s all the rape stuff is based on, then it’s very much the opposite of a rapist. Just like you said, a rogue. A romantic one at that.
It’s an age old trope. Stealing the lord’s gold and gems and giving his daughter one while you’re at it, consentually, ofc.
Basically, like a reference to the Zorro stereotype.
Or a somewhat loose but direct reference to the Mask of Zorro, which wouldn’t have been too old of a movie at that point. The time difference between Oblivion’s release and the releases of Mask of Zorro was 8 years.
But yeah year or two here there, the DualShocks and PS controllers after that were very good controllers.
But those first decent ones came out more like at the turn of the millennium than halfway through the 90’s as you imply.
Back then it ps1 without joysticks and from 96 on N64 with extremely shitty joysticks. Gamecube came out in 2001 and Nintendo had clearly learned it’s lesson — to an extent.
I’m like 90% sure Japanese must have a word for “the spirit of packing lightly, only taking what is essential in function OR beauty which you can not go without” or something like that.
I kinda get that they’ll do whatever than can to shut down an emulator for a console still selling
If I hadn’t downloaded Yuzu and BOTW, Nintendo would’ve probably missed out on several hundreds euros my brother spent on buying a Switch, several games, controllers and supplies, albeit some of the supplies are 3rd party so Nintendo probably didn’t make profit off them.
Piracy definitely increases sales. I would have never bought a Switch in the situation I was in some years back, but having downloaded it and gotten very into it, my brother wanted to as well and he didn’t care to pirate, and had actual uses for Switch’s properties that you don’t get on emulators, like online play and the portability of the console itself.
Idk, I have a vivid memory of playing the game, I remember all the weapons and stages, but I don’t remember having ever input the Konami code, although I do know of it nowadays obviously.
Perhaps my older brother knew it? I don’t know. 30 lives seems like it would just never end, basically.
My main point was rather that the article said it was harder as a co-op? I think it was easier, maybe.
I don’t know man, it’s been more than a quarter of a century. All I remember is having had fun. I think that’s the main point.
